I'm trying to decide which sound card to get. I want it to have DD Live over pci and at least 5.1 support. I would also like it to have optical in at least as an option. I have narrowed it down to these 3 cards-

The XMYSTIQUE is a little older, I know, but still should be good, I would have to get the daughter card to have optical in
The XPLOSION looks awesome, but it doesn't seem to support optical in at all. True?
The b-enspirer looks nice, but I'm not sure about it. It looks a little cheap in the pictures for some reason.
I will be using this card with logitech z5300's over analog connections, but I want the option of digital in the future.
Other sugestions are welcome, but please, no creative cards.
